A huge attraction at casinos across the country, the classic roulette wheel remains one of the most exciting casino games available. It is played in virtually every gambling house in North and South America and in Europe, where it is even more popular. The American version of roulette has a single zero and a double zero versus the French version with just a single zero. You usually find most tables in Las Vegas with a minimum roulette bet of $1 - $3. In Roulette the bets are placed on an area of the table marked with separate boxes containing individual numbers. In a casino, the person who spins the wheel is called a croupier. The roulette chips are worthless at the other tables in the same casino, so do not bother trying to stack them under your blackjack chips or anything foolish like that. After all bets are placed, the roulette Dealer spins the wheel in one direction and the ball in the opposite direction. When the roulette ball comes to rest in one of the slots, the dealer will call out the winning number and settle all bets. When you get your roulette chips they will not be marked with a denomination, you choose it, and all of the chips will reflect that worth - the dealer keeps track of that by associating the amount and color with a 'lammer'. Unlike other casino games, roulette rounds go by quickly - just a spin of the wheel and the game is over. " You may place roulette bets on the spin until the Dealer announces "No more bets". When you finish beating the house at roulette, you will have to ask the dealer to "color out" for you, the dealer will then take your chips and give you casino checks which you may then use on other games or cash out at the cashier.
